Actor and director Usman Mukhtar made his television debut last year with drama serial Anaa alongside Hania Aamir, Shehzad Sheikh and Naimal Khawar. The actor received positive reviews for portraying Altamash in his first TV project and now he is all set to appear in two drama serials, slated to air in the coming months. We already know that Mukhtar will star alongside Sarah Khan in drama serial, Sabaat, which is directed by Shahzad Kashmiri, who also directed Anaa. However, as viewers, we’ll just have to wait to find out about his next television project.
Apart from television, Mukhtar, who appeared on the big screen in Janaan (2016) and Parchi (2018), is also geared up for a feature length film as well as a short film, titled Bench.
In an interview with online magazine Something Haute, Mukhtar revealed that he is quite excited about the premiere of his short film, which stars Rubya Chaudhry and Mukhtar. While Usman Mukhtar has helmed the short, it is written by Ali Mudar and it is being submitted to festival circuits for consideration like the Tribeca Film Festival.
Recently, Mukhtar also shared the poster of Bench on his Instagram handle and captioned it, “A film is not made by one person, it’s made by the entire team. I was fortunate enough to have the most amazing team who worked on this and I can’t thank you all enough!!! The official festival submissions have started. I present you the official poster of our short - Bench.”
In an earlier interview with Instep, the actor shared that “it is a crime drama” that he plans to showcase at the Pakistan International Film Festival (PIFF) this year as well as Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) etc.
